I have recently decided not to be the dumping ground for the weakest links. Those links that lead nowhere and at best raise a mild laugh. You know the links that floods you on social media making you wish you were a Noah in an ark floating away from the watery links that drown the life out your time.
There only so much “you wouldn’t believe what happened next” a guy can take.
How about sending links the next time you are about to close in on a mega deal so I can partake of the bounty? What is the point in “hammering” (striking it rich) in silence and solitude, and then spending your down time with me? No! I don’t want to laugh. I am not interested in the funny occurrence captured on fuzzy cameras. I want to work and work hard. I want to make some cash.
I need the referrals and introductions. I know how to make myself laugh and I think I should be able to find my way around funny YouTube videos without your help.
What I really need is you to call me when you find that giveaway luxury car or rock bottom new house. Don’t just invite me to the house warming. I want to go to the pre purchase house viewing. Na LOL I wan chop?
Beware of those who send you funny videos everyday on your WhatsApp but every time you meet them they are driving a new car. Then all your Christmas cards get returned because they now live in a bigger house at another location you knew nothing about.
These are the ones who have decided that they would never go prospecting for gold with you but after they have hit the gold mine, they deem you to be cannon fodder for their borrowed jokes.
Never again. Laughter is good medicine, but I will only laugh with those who work hard and go cash hunting with me. Any other person is pure “bad market”.
LOL my foot!
Do you have friends on Facebook who never repeat clothes or cars on any profile picture but you have absolutely no clue how they make their money?
Don’t laugh with them. If they cannot tell you the source of their wealth, then they cannot share a Mark Angel YouTube video with you. Don’t let them publish jokes on your Facebook wall, thus taking up your time.
There is currently an epidemic of worthless links being bandied around on social media.
They are all captioned funniest ever, cutest ever, or she just nailed it, or he just owned it. Well I don’t care who owned it or slayed it on X Factor because Simon Cowell is worth £550 Million (allegedly) and he isn’t sharing. If you get an average of 10 jokes sent to you daily with each lasting five minutes long because the punch line is at the end, you would have wasted 50 minutes LOLing with people who are in the middle of life changing deals they are not sharing with you. Is that friendship, deception or wickedness?
Then of course you get the prayers sent by people who claim the answers will come faster that Usain Bolt can run a 50-meter race. Next they threaten you with Ebola and small pox if you do not share this small miracle with 40 people instantly. Then they have the temerity to ask you to send the post back to the sender. Why??
Only the small pox and Ebola should return to sender abeg.
The truth is those who care for you will visit you at home once in a while. Those in need of an audience for their borrowed punch lines can pass us over. Ehen! Christianity is not a social media, pinging or poking matter….
And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart.
A group of friends could regularly sit side by side to watch Barcelona FC games not knowing that there is a republic within the republic. One day they are surprised to receive an invitation to the grand opening of a huge petrol station from a ‘best friend’ and business partners. They swallow hard thinking their best friend should have let them in on the deal rather than discussing Messi’s tax fraud problems for hours on end. The mortal word comes via the words “I didn’t think you would be interested”.
Here lies the bitter lesson. Next time before spending 90 precious minutes watching football with friends, do the due diligence and be sure that you are actually bonding and networking with people who believe you are interested in making money and improving your life and not just interested in amassing jokes that cannot be traded for bread in Shoprite.
Of course, people have the right to privacy and need not tell me their plans to hit the great jackpot. They should also keep their jokes to themselves.
I know the way to Akpororo on YouTube.
